TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention belongs to the field of vaccine preparation, specifically relates to a thermostable formula, a room-temperature-preserved live classical swine fever vaccine, and a preparation method and an application thereof, and more particularly, relates to a room-temperature-preserved live classical swine fever vaccine and a preparation method thereof.

BACKGROUND

Classical swine fever (CSF) is an acute, febrile and highly contact infectious disease caused by classical swine fever virus (CSFV) of flaviviridae pestivirus with wide epidemicity and high mortality, causing huge potential safety hazard and economic loss to the pig industry. At present, a live CSF cell culture origin vaccine and a CSF Rabbit spleen vaccine play a better role in preventing CSF in the market, both of which are based on a C strain.

CSFV is very sensitive to heat, and it is reported that CSFV has a half-life of 3 hours only at 37° C. At current, the commonly used classical swine fever vaccine is mainly prepared by lyophilization, and the lyophilization protective agents commonly used in the market are simple in composition and mostly contain saccharose, gelatin, thiourea, bovine serum albumin, lactoalbumin hydrolysate, phosphate and other components. The vaccine has limited heat resistance and can only be preserved for 7 days to 10 days at 37° C., or preserved for a long time at −15° C., or preserved for 1 year to 2 years at 2° C. to 8° C. Once a cold chain breaks, a valence of the product is lost by more than 50% or even lost completely in a few hours at a normal temperature. Meanwhile, since an ice crystal formed in a freezing process causes mechanical damages to a virus capsule or a cell wall to different degrees, the virus activity will be greatly reduced. Therefore, reducing the drying loss of the vaccine and improving the heat resistance of the vaccine to ensure the vaccine quality are key technologies to give full play to immune efficacy. In recent years, many researchers have been studying and improving heat-resistant technologies, such as spray drying and biomimetic mineralization, but all these technologies are at lab study levels.

A sugar glass vaccine technology can prepare the vaccine into a glassy state, and the technology is mainly realized through a gradient vacuum drying process. In the process of reducing the vacuum gradient, high-viscosity sugar containing the vaccine is gradually solidified into a glass body through boiling, foaming and volatilization of water, and since non-reducing sugar is stable, the sugar glass wrapping the vaccine may not react with protein. The technology can be carried out at a normal temperature without freezing, thus avoiding the mechanical damage of ice crystal generated by “freezing” in the traditional lyophilization to the virus; moreover, due to the high sugar content and viscosity of the vaccine, the formed glassy state vaccine has a higher glass transition temperature and can be preserved for a long time excluding the room temperature or “cold chain” environment.

A glass transition temperature Tg is an important characteristic thermal parameter of a substance and is the temperature at which a substance changes from a glassy state to a highly elastic state. Below the Tg, a polymer is in a glassy state, a molecular chain and a chain segment cannot move, but atoms (or groups) that contribute a molecule vibrate at their equilibrium positions; and at the Tg, the molecular chain cannot move, but the chain segment begins to move, showing high elastic property, and when the temperature rises again, the whole molecular chain moves and shows viscous flow property. For dried vaccine, the higher the Tg is, the greater the difference between the Tg and the storage temperature is, and the more favorable the long-term preservation of the vaccine is.

Based on the above principle, a thickening agent needs to be added to increase the viscosity of the vaccine before gradient vacuum drying, and meanwhile, a decrease rate of vacuum degree should not be too fast, so as to ensure that foams can be generated during the drying process and the sample does not spray out from a bottle. Therefore, the formulation design should include the following categories: polyol, polymer, surfactant, amino acid and protein stabilizer. The polyol can replace water lost in hydration in the drying process to prevent denaturation of bioactive substance and can act as a thickening agent, the toughness thereof can support the formation and stability of foam, thus forming a dried foam structure. The commonly used foam components include: saccharose, trehalose, sorbose, melezitose, sorbitol, stachyose, raffinose, fructose, mannose, maltose, lactose, arabinose, xylose, ribose, rhamnose, galactose, glucose, mannitol, xylitol, erythritol, threitol, glycerol, L-sodium stibogluconate, etc. Most polyols and bioactive substances are prepared into a mixed solution with a concentration of 1 to 35%, 1.5 to 9%, or 10 to 25%.

The polymer mainly plays a protective role in the composition, when the polymer is used with the polyol, the viscosity of the component is increased, and the linear or branched stripe polymer can increase the strength of the dried foam structure in the present invention. Many polymers are highly water-soluble, so that they may not significantly hinder the reconstruction of dried foams. The surfactant mainly protects the surface tension during foam formation, so as to avoid denaturation of some bioactive components, foam stabilization, rapid reconstitution, etc. The surfactant may be a suitable ionic/nonionic detergent, Tween surfactant, Pluronic surfactant, etc. The addition of protein and amino acid is helpful to the antioxidation of dried product during long-term storage, and the commonly used proteins include bovine serum albumin, silk fibroin, etc.; and the amino acids include tyrosine, arginine, histidine, cysteine, etc.

In addition, it should be noted that the residual water content of the sugar glass vaccine should not be too high and should be controlled at 1% to 3%, and under this residual water condition, the vaccine can better keep a glassy state and be stable.

In Table 2, drying loss refers to a virus content difference of the vaccines before drying and 0 d after being dried. Heat resistance loss refers to a virus content difference of the vaccines 0 d after being dried and stored for different days at 37° C.

It can be seen from Table 2 that the virus content losses of the live classical swine fever vaccines 1 to 6 in the drying process range from 0.4 to 0.52 Lg RID/mL; after storage for 10 days at 37° C., the virus content losses are all less than or equal to 0.3 Lg RID/mL, and after storage for 90 days at 37° C., the virus content losses range from 0.88 to 1.0 Lg RID/mL. The virus content losses of the live classical swine fever vaccines 1 to 6 in the heat-resistant process are all less than that of the control heat-resistant live classical swine fever vaccine. The live classical swine fever vaccine 4 and the live classical swine fever vaccine 5 have the best heat resistance, the heat resistance losses of which are both 1.22 Lg after being stored for 120 days at 37° C.

In Table 3, drying loss refers to a difference between 0 d vaccine virus contents before and after being dried. Heat resistance loss refers to a difference between the vaccine virus contents after the vaccine is dried for 0 day and stored for different days at 25° C.

It can be seen from Table 3 that the virus content losses of the live classical swine fever vaccines 1 to 6 in the drying process range from 0.4 to 0.52 Lg RID/mL; after storage for 6 months at 25° C., the virus content losses are all less than or equal to 0.6 Lg RID/mL, after storage for 12 months at 25° C., the virus content losses range from 0.82 to 1.0 Lg RID/mL; and after storage for 1 month at 25° C., the virus content losses of the control live classical swine fever vaccines 1 and 2 range from 1.0 to 1.48 Lg RID/mL. The virus content losses of the live classical swine fever vaccines 1 to 6 in the heat-resistant process are all less than that of the control heat-resistant live classical swine fever vaccine. The live classical swine fever vaccine 5 has the best heat resistance, the virus content loss is only 0.82 Lg RID/mL when stored for 12 months at 25° C., and this result is correlated with the best heat resistance at highest Tg when stored for 90 days to 120 days at 37° C.
